There are a number of medicines available from pharmacies to treat mild acne. These usually contain antibacterial agents such as benzoyl peroxide.

They are needed in minute amounts compared to macronutrients and do not provide energy in the form of calories. Carbohydrates, proteins and fats are all important macronutrients for our bodies. Because they are the main sources of fuel for the body, it is important to eat a balanced diet that contains all three nutrients.
